Sacha Baron Cohen ruffled a few feathers at the Oscars over the weekend while performing as his newest character The Dictator. Cohen, dressed in a lavish white military style uniform with a giant fake beard, carried a golden urn onto the red carpet and proceeded to pour ashes onto Ryan Seacrest's shoes.

The urn was emblazoned with a picture of late North Korean dictator Kim Jong-Il, and Cohen joked that it was Kim's last wishes to have his ashes scattered at the event.

"These are the ashes of my good friend Kim Jong-Il and it was his dream to come to the Oscars and be scattered on the red carpet and on Halle Berry's chest," Cohen said before spilling the ashes onto the red carpet.
